Leave a Review iPGMail
Very useful but could use a UX and UI upgrade
The app is very useful but lacks a decent UX and user interface. For example, I can't search keys or names or addresses to send an encrypted email to.sci-fi geek
Very nice improvements
I've been using this app for a while and it used to be much more difficult to use, these last few updates have really made it my go to for iOS gpg encryption. With just a few more tweaks it would be flawless. Keep up the good work!seangeleno
Works
Hope they continue to add features.. One really important feature I want to see is the he ability to copy text anywhere and by using the share option to decrypt data...cjbluez
Pretty Good App ;)
Works overall. Has one minor bug where it won't prompt for the private key password until you switch away from the app to another app and then switch back. Only a pain during setup. Once your private keys are imported, tap them and enable Touch ID so you never have to enter password again.brytunes
Request Feature
Needs the ability to remove the "using iPGMail" metadata.Ederjoe
This is clearly the best
It took a bit of work to get the keys in, I had to put in one key at a time through iTunes app section, but once they were in, I culd send email from the app. The app also lives in the share sheet so if someone sends a signed or encrypted, I and send the email from spoarrow to this app and have it verified and decypted. It would be amazing if Apple could to PGP on the native app, built in, but this is the next best thing. no more than 2 extra steps and it is quick.Show lessAntiduplicity
This version is perfect!
Perfect! It's now a 5 star app. All features work great. All of the problems I had in the past have been fixed. This app just gets better and better.
Previous review: I like the UI improvments. There is still a problem with files(pictures) being sent as encrypted attachments using iPGMail. I'm not sure it's the files size that is causing the problem or something else. When using Enigmail for Thunderbird on my PC, I get errors when trying to decrypt the attachment from iPGMail. Encrypted attachments I send to iPGMail from Enigmail for Thunderbird are decrypted with no problems.
Previous review: Bumped it up to 4 stars. No longer deletes keys and reads incoming attachments properly. However, it is still not handling outgoing attachments right. Some work but most don't. When I try to decrypt them on my PC, the ones that don't work give me a message that they are not signed properly.
Previous review: All my keys were deleted after the last update. Also, attachment aren't being handled correctly now. Past versions read attachments just fine. I'll give this app 5 stars once it starts working properly again.Show lessXdm9mm
Worth the price
Just started using OpenPGP on my iMac and after reading an article on iPad - iPhone PGP apps, I decided to give this one a try. I did struggle a bit getting it set up but I did get it working fine once this was done. I had a question that was not covered in the support pages and the developer got back to me very quickly and answered my question. A real good sign and I appreciate his help. I would highly recommend this app and have told my friends and family about it.Show lessGasport
Understand what you are and are not getting
This app does what it does really well. As far as I can see the low ratings are from people who couldn’t figure out how to set it up or use it which in part is just about the inherent complexity of using PGP with email. But I’m giving 5 stars because if you can figure out how to use it, it’s the best available PGP solution on IOS and it really does get the job done when you are away from your desktop environment.
That said, this app is NOT a full email client. It comes pretty close if you are composing outbound mail because it can hitch a ride on the outbound mail settings of your email client app and leave the message sent in that app’s Sent folder without having to get the mail app involved. But for decoding inbound encrypted messages it’s inherently cumbersome. You’ve got to open the message in your mail client then forward the encrypted part as an attachment to the PGP app — in my case I found that works best if I forward it via my Dropbox folder — and from there you decode it with your previously installed private key.
I hope that over time the developers expand this app into a full mail client so that the extra handling steps on inbound messages become unnecessary, which would be a huge improvement for workflow. But for now it’s good enough to allow me to message securely without having to cart a laptop around all the time — for which I’m grateful.Show lessSteveGelmis
Great app, great support!
I bought this app today, had a minor issue (didn't know how to send encrypted content to the clipboard INSTEAD OF in an email), reached out to the developer on Twitter. IMMEDIATELY got a message back which helped me overcome my issue. Have tested the app multiple ways in round trip data through iPhone, iPad, and a windows work system. Now I can securely transfer information through email, dropbox, and other cloud based text systems.Show lessVerxion
